Check the weather in Chicago .... it is snowing lolSo get to the track and get to work on getting your Stinger in the 11s!![]()
Lol ..... again I don’t think it’s a fair comparison to compare and awd Tork tune to rwd jb4.... what needs to be compared is a jb4 awd to a Tork tune awd .... from what I read so far and seen the ecu tunes cars seem to be slightly faster ... just my 2 cents but I agree all this technical talk makes my head hurt ....Thank you for clarifying your experience but it’s obvious you’ve only roll raced once, because your knowledge of how a roll race would work in the real world is extremely lacking...
You can’t take results from a 1/4m run that starts from a dig and accurately use it to represent a roll race. Since your car had the AWD traction advantage you were already accelerating faster to 60mph. Terry had to limit boost in gears 1-2, so acceleration in your comparison isn’t equal and can’t be used to represent a roll race.
However your numbers do prove Terry was already gaining on within your 60-90 example. During the 60-80 time your 0.1 quicker, but the 60-90 time is cut in half to 0.05 difference. So at full boost after 2nd gear(60mph) he’s already gaining on you. Meaning, if you both really started from a roll at 60mph he’d immediately start walking away from you. And by 130 the .76sec difference would be car lengths!
I’m sorry to keep disproving your “indisputable data”, but it’s misleading when you keep trying to make up facts.
You should be happy you’re the quickest Stinger on record with the best 0-60 & 1/4m ETs. But your AWD advantage is a disadvantage in any roll race and no matter what you show in your logs/graphs will prove otherwise. Terry or any RWD Stinger with a JB4 and similar upgrades(intake, WMI, drag radials) will walk on you in a roll race. It’s just how physics work.
Again, I’m not trying to take sides or take anything away from your records or accomplishments. I’m simply trying to clarify what each set of statistics represent, and what the true differences are between your AWD Tork tune and a RWD JB4 chip. Both are amazing & have extremely similar performance improvements, but according to the results in this tread the facts are simple.
AWD with Tork tune & multiple bolt-ons makes the “quickest” 0-60 & 1/4m ET Stinger, but RWD with JB4 & WMI with less bolt-ons makes the “fastest” Stinger to date. That being said, tuned AWD Stingers will be quickest for dig or stoplight racing which RWD Stingers will be extremely jealous of(me included). But tuned RWD Stingers will win the roll races with AWD Stingers like yourself, wishing they could compete.
Don’t take this the wrong way and no disrespect, but please be happy with your multiple recordsand just leave the inexperience with the “fastest” Stinger and all the “roll racing” talk go.
I have nothing against draggy .... all I said is I bet stung won’t have an 11 second pass at the track with just jb4 and dump valves ... that’s all I said .... look I get most people here have draggys and the fastest time are with draggy I can see why some of you guys get sentive about the subject .... in my opinion there is only one 11 second car to date so far and that’s tork .... and please before I get called a Tork fan boy I am far from it lol ... I think that something that other would agree .. I am just being real .... I really don’t understand why terry has not hit a track yet .... terry aren’t you in California dude ?? I would love to terry hit the strip and hit an 11 second pass ...but let’s see what this summer brings I know there will be some 11 second passes this summer ... I bet tonka, bears for life , and Anthony and possibly me as far as people I know will possibly reach 11 at the track ... only time will tell ... that when I give Tork credit they actually post the results from the track ....I think everyone forgets that! I've had 20 years of 1/4 mile racing, at various tracks. BIG time variables.
Angel, I dunno what you have it in for with the draggy, but the comparisons we have seen here from timeslips to draggy times is unreal. Most are within .005 with the draggy reading slower than the timeslips.
